Recitation By Ibraheem Alsweed

Bismillahir Rahman nir RaheemAssalam oalaikum,Abu Umaamah said he heard Allah’s Apostle (saw) say: “Read the Qur’an, because on the Day of Resurrection it will plead on behalf of those who read It! Read the two bright ones, “al-Baqarah” (2nd Chapter of the Qur’aan) and “Al ‘Emraan,” (3rd Chapter of the Qur’aan), for on the Day of Resurrection they (al-Baqarah and Al ‘Emraan) will act as two clouds, two shades or two flocks of birds in ranks and will plead for the ones who read them. Read Surah “al-Baqarah” (2nd Chapter of the Qur’an), for to take an alternative to it is a blessing and to give it up is a cause of sorrow and the magicians cannot tackle it (with their spells).”Hazrat Usman (radiy-Allahu `anhu) narrates that Prophet Mohammad (saw) said: ‘The best amongst you is he who learns the Qur'an and teaches it." (Bukhari, Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi)Hazrat Abu Sa'eed (radiy-Allahu `anhu) narrates that Prophet Mohammad (saw) said: ‘Almighty Allah says; "If anybody finds no time for My remembrance and for asking favors from Me because of his reading Qur'an, I shall grant him more than what I give to all those who beg favors of Me. The superiority of the Word of Allah over all other words is like the super iority of Allah over the entire creation.’ (Tirmidhi, Bayhaqi)Hazrat Uqba ibn Amir (radiy-Allahu `anhu) said: Prophet Mohammad (saw) came to us while we were sitting on the Suffa and asked if anyone of us would like to go to the market of Buthan or Aqeeq and fetch two she -camels of the finest breed without committing any sin or severing a tie of kinship. We replied that every one of us would love to do so. Prophet Mohammad (saw) then said that going to the Masjid and reciting or teaching 2 verses of the Qur'an is more pre cious than 2 she-camels, 3 verses are more precious than 3 she-camels and that similarly re citing or teaching of 4 verses is better than 4 she-camels and an equal number of camels." (Muslim, Abu Dawud)Hazrat Aa’isha (radi-Allaho anha) narrates that Prophet Mohammad (saw) once said, "One who is well versed in the Qur'an will be in the company of those angels who are scribes, noble and righteous; and one who falters in reading the Qur'an, and has to exert hard for learning, gets double the reward." (Muslim)Hazrat Abdullah ibn Amr RadiyAllahu `anhu re ports that Prophet Mohammad (saw) said: 'On the Day of Judgment, it will be said to the Man devoted to the Qur'an, 'Go on reciting the Qur'an and continue ascending the stories of Paradise and recite in the slow manner as you had been reading in your worldly life; your final place will be where you reach at the time of the last ayat of your recitation." (Ahmad, Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud)
